Currently, in cygwin 1.5.22, readlink("/bin/exim.lnk",0,0) returns -1,
even though readlink("/bin/exim",0,0) returns 0. But my recollection is
that it used to return 0, since /bin/exim.lnk is an alternate spelling for
/bin/exim. This change in behavior affects several of the coreutils; for
example:
$ \ls -l /bin/exim
lrwxrwxrwx 1 eblake Users 15 Aug 19 06:51 /bin/exim -> exim-4.63-1.exe
$ \ls --append-exe -l /bin/exim
ls: cannot access /bin/exim.exe: No such file or directory
Was this change intentional, in which case I need to find an alternative
workaround to my .exe magic in coreutils, or accidental?
